Attachment 5—an application for non-public treatment of materials to maintain the contracts and supporting documents under seal.

    In support of its Request, the Postal Service filed the following

    1. Attachment 1--a statement of supporting justification as 
required by 39 CFR 3020.32;
    2. Attachments 2-A and 2-B-- redacted copies of the contracts;
    3. Attachments 3-A and 3-B--redacted copies of the certified

Id. at 1.
    In the statement of supporting justification, Jo Ann Miller, former

    Functional equivalency. The Postal Service asserts that the two 
contracts have generally similar cost and market characteristics as 
previous IBRS contracts. However, because it requests that the instant 
contracts be deemed the new baseline contracts for the IBRS Competitive 
Contract 2 product, the Postal Service considers the appropriate 
analysis to be the comparison of the new contracts' cost attributes and 
market characteristics with one another. Id. at 3. The Postal Service 
indicates that the instant contracts differ from one another basically 
only in the customer identity. Id. The Postal Service represents that 
prices and classifications ``not of general applicability'' for IBRS 
contracts were established by Governors' Decision No. 08-24 filed in 
Docket Nos. MC2009-14 and CP2009-20. It also identifies the instant 
contracts as fitting within the Mail Classification Schedule language 
for IBRS contracts as included as an attachment to Governors' Decision 
No. 08-24. Id. at 2.
    The Request addresses reasons why IBRS Competitive Contract 2 
should be added to the Competitive Product List and fits within the 
Mail Classification Schedule language for the IBRS contracts. Id. at 5. 
The Postal Service also explains that a redacted version of the 
supporting financial documentation is included with this filing as a 
separate Excel file. Id. at 3.

compliance with 39 U.S.C. 3633, are functionally equivalent to one 
another, fit within the IBRS Mail Classification Schedule language, 
will serve as the new baseline contracts for the proposed product, and 
should be grouped together under a single product. Id. at 6. It
